Abstract: Method and apparatus for encrypting transmission traffic at separate protocol layers L1, L2, and L3 so that separate encryption elements can be assigned to separate types of transmission traffic, which allows the implementation of different levels of encryption according to service requirements. Encryption elements use variable value inputs, called crypto-syncs, along with semi-permanent encryption keys to protect from replay attacks from rogue mobile stations. Since crypto-sync values vary, a method for synchronizing crypto-syncs at the mobile station and base station is also presented.

Abstract: Laser projection system suitable for commercial motion picture theaters and other large screen venues, including home theater, uses optical fibers to project modulated laser beams for simultaneously raster scanning multiple lines on screen. Emitting ends of optical fibers are arranged in an array such that red, green and blue spots are simultaneously scanned onto the screen in multiple lines spaced one or more scan lines apart. Use of optical fibers enables scanning of small, high resolution spots on screen, and permits convenient packaging and replacement, upgrading or modification of system components. Simultaneous raster scanning of multiple lines enables higher resolution, brightness, and frame rates with available economical components. Fiber-based beam coupling may be used to greatly enhance the flexibility of the system. Alternate embodiments illustrate the flexibility of the system for different optical fiber output head configurations and for different types, sizes, and arrangements of laser, modulation, and scanning components.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for (co-)polymerizing ethylene in a gaseous phase, by means of a fluidized and/or mechanically stirred bed reactor, with the help of a catalyst comprising a chromium oxide and a titanium compound, supported on a refractory oxide and activated by a heat treatment. The process is characterized in that the catalyst is introduced into the reactor in the form of a dry powder consisting of particles free from prepolymer and the (co-)polymerization is carried out in the presence of an organoaluminium compound. The (co-)polymer thus obtained has substantially low catalyst residues, and an improved stress cracking resistance.
